👨‍🍳 Instructions

Remove and discard stems and seeds from dried chiles.

Slice chiles in half or quarters, if they are large.

Heat a cast iron skillet over medium-low heat.

Add chiles and heat through to ensure all the moisture has evaporated.

Remove and place on a rack to cool.

Place cumin seeds, coriander seeds, caraway seeds, and peppercorns to skillet.

Stir seeds and toast until fragrant but not burning, about 3 minutes.

Remove and allow to cool.

Grind chiles and toasted seeds with a mortar and pestle into a coarse powder.

Add smoked paprika, garlic powder, smoked salt, parsley, and oregano.

Continue to blend until all spices are completely combined and pulverized.
